I had a friend visit me from out of town and we thought this would be a perfect day trip, as we were walking towards the mystic bridge we decided to check into a harbor tour. The captain was great, funny, full of knowledge of the surrounding areas and all of the history it has to offer. You are allowed to bring coolers on the boat and yes alcoholic beverages included. The tour is around 40 minutes and worth the money which was $25 a person read more

A fun little cruise. It was so much I wish there was an opportunity for a longer cruise. Captain Carl was a great host and guide. Very informative with local sailing history, sights and little bits of info. Great boarding staff and a worthwhile value. read more

Absolutely horrible experience. Booked cruise online on September 1st for cruise on the 4th. Received confirmation for cruise. Traveled from Ohio for vacation. Showed up on the day 20+ minutes early. Waited and waited. No one showed up. Knocked on office door. No one there. Called them. Got answering machine. We left after waiting 20 extra minutes for them to show up. Never received a call back. Had to email them. They never apologized. Said we would get a refund. Got an email finally after a few days that the refund was sent "it could take up to 30 days to show up". After two weeks I contacted them and was assured I was refunded. I let the 30 days pass no refund. I had to file a dispute with my bank and they got my money for me. Do not recommend. Unprofessional. No apology. read more

We hired Captain John Wilkes to take our company out for a cruise. We paid and then due to the weather he had to cancel. The contract I have with him clearly states that should the Captain cancel, a full refund is due. I have been requesting the $4500 refund for months and he has dodged me and lied to me. He is a crook and a thief. Stay away! read more

Unethical company, last summer I chartered the Mystic Pearl to scatter my husbands ashes. After paying them 875 to reserve the boat they charged my card twice without permission. My daughter became very ill so I had to cancel my charter 6 days before. The owner, Johnathon, said we could postpone the trip which I said I would like to do. When he got a notice from my bank saying I had disputed one of the charges (after he said it was a mistake and he would refund it but never did) he got mad and charged my card again- this time for tips and gratuities! I disputed the charges again so he sent my bank the contract stating that I had to cancel 14 days before. At this point I was out more than $1700. I tried contacting him numerous times to at least reschedule (thinking he would honor his email saying I could postpone the trip) but could not reach him by phone or email. He's a thief! read more

We were looking for an activity that would be fun for a multigenerational group of 23 people with toddlers, seniors, and everyone in between. We had been in communication with Oliver for months in advance. About two weeks before the big day, we saw that the forecast called for showers throughout Memorial Day weekend, particularly the Sunday of our planned cruise. We monitored the weather and decided to make a decision closer to the day. Throughout the entire process of planning, Oliver was responsive, reliable, accommodating, and kind. On the morning of the trip, Oliver gave us multiple options and worked with us to make sure that we could cancel and get a full refund due to the inclement weather. He provided us with agency up to the last hour of decision making. On a day that could have been really stressful, Oliver alleviated some of that stress. That is exceptional customer service, and that is the reason we will be coming back to the Argia for another special occasion. Highly recommend working with Oliver and his team if you get the chance!

We sat down and talked about everything my husband and I dreamed about for the reception - and Chris and the SHYC made it all come true. It's a beautiful space. The fireplace was lit, we had a gelato sundae bar set up in the library, and all the rooms were open so our guests had plenty of room. We got to enjoy a sunset over the water through the windows that span the entire length of the club. I am still getting tons of compliments about the food. Chris worked with us to set up stations with made to order steak, pasta, veggies, and bacon scallops that were TO DIE FOR! All of the servers, bartenders, everyone involved was so kind, helpful and in a celebratory mood. It was absolutely perfect and VERY reasonable!! We felt like it was an incredible value for the experience. I can't rave enough. Thank you so much Chris and SHYC!!

But, if you need an easy way to get around, avoid 2 hr meter parking - which is a real drag, this is a great option. All day pass $12. Limited tour so be clear on where it stops/goes to.

I learned a lot of history and got to hear some haunting stories while on the trip. Evan did a great job of keeping us entertained and the scenery was lovely. It was interesting and relaxing. If you go, try to sit at the back or in the middle of the boat. We sat at the front and struggled to see what was being talked about. It was a great length of time at 75 mins and parking was easy in the parking garage. If you are looking for something different where you can walk away relaxed and more knowledgeable, take the tour! You won't be disappointed!
